Linking to a Resource from a multi-language Page
-
I have a multi-language page where the content is available in several versions (translated). I want to link to a resource that is only available in one English.
Is it a good idea to link to this resource from all language versions or should I better include the link only in the English version of my page?
In the first scenario for example a Spanisch and a German language version would link to a page in English. Is this ok or could it be considered spam?

@ConverterApp I never tried to check the results but I think you are totally fine to Link to the english page. The user can work with google translate or most people speak english in these countrys.
If you not sure, is there any matching content in the other languages? Maybe you link these instead.

Technical SEO | | CheapyPP
We are running up against a technical url structure issue with the addition of eCommerce pages . We are hoping you can point us in the right direction. We operate a printing company so all our current product info page are structured like: website/printing/business-cards
website/printing/rackcards
website/printing/etc The ecommerce functionality needs to go into a sub folder but the question is what should we name it? this how the urls would look like in the main category and product pages
/business-cards
/business-cards/full-uv-coaing-both-sides we were thinking either going with /order
website/order/business-cards
website/order/business-cards/full-uv-coaing-both-sides or maybe shop/ or/print-order/ etc Any ideas or suggestions?0 -
Is it a good idea to publish a list of players in my industry, including competitors?
I am working with an e-commerce site that does mostly B2B sales in a very commoditized industrial product segment in which very few manufacturers sell direct. It's all done through distributors and resellers, like our site. We don't often win on price, but we do win enough SERP battles to get the visitors and provide great customer service, so we have gained a following and we do compete well for some very large orders. We list several thousand products and in a given month, visitors regularly hit over 1,000 different landing pages. While we make most money from relatively few items, most items are sold only once a year, maybe twice. It's a very longtail business, and therefore tough to do a great job optimizing all pages down the tail. So, one thing I'm doing is building out a set of resource pages with common questions, terminology and other useful bits so the site gains more traffic and authority, in the hope of boosting product pages. e.g., an in-depth category definition in the glossary could link to all the items in a category. In addition to adding content that augments product pages, I'd like to create basically a map of the whole industry, including brand name manufacturers, white label manufacturers, distributors, etc. If it's going to be a truly comprehensive list, it should include my competitors. Given that I have never found such a list, it feels like this could be a good page and earn some links. Since it's unlikely much traffic will even find that page, compared to product pages, are there potential pitfalls I should be aware of? I get the feeling if I create a page that others bookmark and visit when hunting for products in our market, we win, even if most visitors to that page won't buy from us. I've been in this industry for four years now, and it's amazing how hard it is to find some companies. Only a handful even think about SEO, since they sell through other channels. Should I link to all my competitors (which is only about a dozen) among hundreds of other industry links?

Link juice and max number of links clarification
I understand roughly that "Link Juice" is passed by dividing PR by the number of links on a page. I also understand the juice available is reduced by some portion on each iteration. 50 PR page 10 links on page 5 * .9 = 4.5 PR goes to each link. Correct? If so and knowing Google stops counting links somewhere around 100, how would it impact the flow to have over 100 links? IE 50 PR page 150 links on the page .33 *.9 = .29PR to each link BUT only for 100 of them. After that, the juice is just lost? Also, I assume Google, to the best of its ability, organizes the links in order of importance such that content links are counted before footer links etc.
